A great find for fans of a damp-earth-driven style of Pinot Noir that succeeds by not smothering the deep black cherry fruit and spice, with a zesty citric kiss on the end that serves to brighten the whole package. Well done! A Platinum award winner at the 2017 Sommelier Challenge International Wine & Spirits Competition.
